20/ The opposite of "give in to the left" is NOT "post stupid memes on twitter". Explain to me,

21/ You want to win the culture war? - plant a garden (and teach your kids the value of hard work) - learn blacksmithing (and teach your sons to respect the physical power of an adult male ... married with precision and control) - balance your household budget

22/ ... and teach kids the value of prudence, practical math, and low time preference - volunteer for some form of Scouting or 4H (and teach kids the virtues of stewardship) THESE THINGS, not emo-ing online, is how you build a culture. Emo-ing online is weak and degenerate.

23/ ...and every time someone tells me "but I don't WANT to do hard things and set good examples, I WANT to emo online", I judge them as weak, degenerate, and fundamentally unserious.

32/ The distinction between "women do X" and "everyone who does X is a woman" is hard, I know. Keep trying, tho, @censoredpinx, maybe you'll understand eventually. https://twitter.com/censoredpinx/status/1334892217614413829 …
